I'm sure we could set up some kind of royalty-splitting arrangement with Minna.  I know a good intellectual property lawyer...

(Srsly, if IKEA ever marketed anything that looked at all SSSS-ish, they'd be surprised how fast it sells.)

We could start shipping SSSS-themed Louis-Vuitton handbags for starters, they're all made in Taiwan or something anyways so the profits will be a lot bigger than the expenses  :P

Oh please, I shouldn't be getting any profit from it ::)

I mean hey, as long as the profits are going to the right place :D

When your assignment for your computer art class is 'recreate a masterpiece using only the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator' (read: using only shapes) and:

To put this into perspective:

(and note, my professor's definition of 'masterpiece' meant any work from any artist)

They still don't load... And I strongly suspect what is shown there, which makes me want to see them even mooore.

Loaded for me eventually and it is quite nice, but is it still being made since we can only see a part of it? I don't think anyone here minds seeing a bit halfbaked picture and im eager to see the whole thing.

ARGH They show up just fine on my computer. The first picture is the full image, and the second is a detail. Maybe I should just post the links.

EDIT: Updated the pictures for a third time.
EDIT EDIT: Going to upload the pictures to Tumblr, if that doesn't work I'll put the links in.
EDIT3: 99% sure the Tumblr links are working. Problem solved.

Wow!  That is a labor of love!  The first picture, I would never have known *wasn't* a frame from the comic.  The second frame has a wonderful Roy Lichtenstein artier-than-art quality.  Did you really do the whole scene in that level of detail?!?

At first I was going to point out that it was oddly specific to draw a highly detailed zoom-in on Sigrun's finger but then I realised the first image wasn't just a copy-paste from the comic for reference :0

Yup, the whole picture is done that way... took me about thirty hours... *eye twitch*

Haha :D I wish I could post the original Illustrator file, because  you can zoom in and see all the shapes, which doesn't work when converted to a .png. (and I can only post so many details, too) I keep pulling the image up on my computer and just staring at it 'caause I'm proud of myself.

....when last night I had  a reeeeeaally weird dream involving the SSSS crew. There I am, just casually dreaming about weird stuff, as usual, when suddenly I'm observing them in some weird, cottage-like(but huge, with spiderwebs and somewhat rotten carpet-thingys, you know those made of animal hides) abandoned building. Then all of a sudden I'm Lalli and for some reason I have accuired a weird necklace with a gem. Which must have had cool powers or was really rare or something, because then when Sigrun noticed it, she was just like "yeah imma need that thing" and took it(wow, rude), at which point I as Lalli was really annoyed, I guess I was pretty fond of that necklace. Anyway, I never found out what they were looking for and whether they found it or not because the scene changed, and this time we were all in some place that greatly resembled a parking lot of a supermarket(??). I was once again just an observer and I saw the crew exit the supermarket, someone/something was apparently following them so they had to change their clothing(????). Then when Lalli came out I was suddenly him again and pulling some heavy, black coat more securely around me because damn it was cold in there. After that, I woke up. And proceeded to wonder what the hell I just dreamed. It was all very vague and confusing.

SSSS is even invading my dreams, damnit!
